Analytical review of the Forex market for the July 2, 2009.

Being under pressure, the European currency being dropped in anticipation of the ECB's decision to base the interest rate. Once again, the votes cast by representatives of China: Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Yafey He made it clear that China does not intend to raise the issue of a new reserve currency to replace the dollar at the forthcoming meeting next week of Eight G8 - this statement immediately spurred demand for U.S. currency. For the single European currency, a situation further aggravated after the statements by the President of the ECB Jean-Claude Trichet that recovery phase for the region will begin, perhaps, only in mid-2010

The decision to leave the ECB's base rate at the same level, almost no effect on the European currency, because no one expected the ECB surprises, as traders had already been under sufficient influence of the negative news on the euro.

Output data for the change in employment in the non-agricultural sector, the U.S. will only exacerbate an already negative situation on stock markets: the number of employees decreased by 467 thousand (estimated -363 thousand).
